(Willoughby)-Firefighters battled a huge fire early Tuesday morning at the Willoughby-Eastlake Board of Education office in Willoughby at 37047 Ridge Road. It closed and rerouted traffic in that area. The Fire broke out shortly after midnight and twelve neighboring fire departments were called in to help. Wintry weather conditions compounded the problems fighting the blaze and water from the hoses caused problems on the roads.
School will be closed on Wednesday because water destroyed communications equipment in the basement. It's not yet clear when school will resume.
